Calendário PIS 2025: Everything You Need to Know
The Program for Social Integration (PIS) is a social contribution in Brazil, funded by employers, aimed at financing worker benefits. One of the most anticipated aspects of PIS is the annual payment made to eligible workers. While the official calendário PIS 2025 (PIS calendar 2025) hasn’t been released yet, we can make informed projections based on previous years and understand the general guidelines.
How the PIS Calendar Typically Works
Historically, the PIS payment calendar is determined by the month of birth of the beneficiary. Usually, payments start in the second half of the year and extend into the following year. This phased approach helps manage the volume of payments and ensures a smoother process for Caixa Econômica Federal, the bank responsible for administering the PIS.
Based on past calendars, a possible projection for the 2025 calendar (referring to the base year of 2024) could look something like this:
- Born in January/February: Payments start around July/August 2025.
- Born in March/April: Payments start around August/September 2025.
- Born in May/June: Payments start around September/October 2025.
- Born in July/August: Payments start around October/November 2025.
- Born in September/October: Payments start around November/December 2025.
- Born in November/December: Payments start around December 2025/January 2026.
Important: This is just an estimated timeline. The official calendário PIS 2025 will be released by the government (usually through the Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego) and Caixa Econômica Federal. Always refer to official sources for the accurate dates.
Eligibility Requirements for PIS
To be eligible for the PIS payment, you generally need to meet the following criteria:
- Be registered in the PIS/PASEP program for at least five years.
- Have worked formally for at least 30 days in the base year (2024 for the 2025 payment).
- Have received an average monthly salary of up to two minimum wages during the base year.
- Have your employer correctly reported your information in the RAIS (Relação Anual de Informações Sociais) or eSocial.
